Operation Christmas seeks funds to hit one third of 1976 goal
In Long Beach, Operation Christmas aims to aid needy families with food, clothing, and gifts but progress is slow. Maj Don Pack reports only one third of the 1976 goal of 5,000 has been raised, risking insufficient holiday assistance for some families. Donations can be sent to Independent Press Telegram Christmas Fund, 455 E Spring St, with agencies including Catholic Social Services and PTA coordinating food and clothing drives through local centers.
